Ryanair thought to be in discussions with Graz airport over a route to London, presumably Stansted

Look at a birds eye image and you can see, replace the older cargo terminal the TNT one, replace with a satellite building
build new cargo building the other side of the FedEx apron.
sorry there was no camera phones back in the day 😬

A very outdated rumour then.

Indeed, but an obvious location when you look at it and I’m sure the plans from way back were done for a reason, so when the time comes it would still be a viable location.

So the next question is where does the freight go - and which would make more money?

freight went in the blue area, everything moved left.

I don't think the airport owns the land which the cargo sheds occupy.
I'm sure they could buy it but I bet the current owners would extract a hefty price.
Sat 4 seems a cheaper choice right now

The cargo area won’t be converted into a a Satellite. It would only have one operational side on the Alpha cul d sac and would have no easy link to the terminal. Much more sense to build in SAT4

Of cause satellite 4 would come before satellite 5.
Do not rule out the location of satellite 5, even though it was a while back the plans were there.
also the TTS already goes but does not stop to the cargo area in question so no issues with transportation to and from satellite 5.

I don't know where that map came from but it doesn't go as far as the cargo sheds. It turns under the Alpha cul de sac.

The TTS does not loop round under the cargo area. Like mentioned above it loops under the Alpha cul d sac.
Also TTS is built up to SAT3 and what would be SAT4. But no stations where actually built and track only running up to SAT3 with an empty tunnel after that towards what would be SAT4
Seriously where do or are you getting your information?
We won’t have a SAT5 as a second terminal would be built before then and the connecting Satellite buildings or piers would be renamed.

Ok calm down I never said it was definitely happening, I said back in the day BAA, there was an examination in the staff restaurant in the under Croft and it was in the plans.
If the TTS map is incorrect does anyone have a correct one ? I was u dear the impression that the TTS turned at a junction and there was/is a straight ahead that is not in use.

But you are quoting information that is vastly outdated and irrelevant to the current airport.
Though these may have been ideas from the past they are not current.

Yes TTS does have a straight line it’s between SAT2 Stations and what would be SAT3 Stations. It has a crossover past SAT2 to switch to the other track.
Unfortunately I don’t have a map I could supply to an open group.

I believe the proposed new terminal + Sat 4 may look something like this...

I have heard the same sort of thing. It would be a similar layout to this.
The arrivals terminal has apparently been totally scrapped and designs and plans for a second terminal are happening now. From what I hear by the end of summer plans should be released.

Was never keen on the separate departures/arrivals terminals. Plus the design of the arrivals terminal just didn’t fit with the current one. Let’s hope it’s better split as two separate terminals and the current terminal shoreline check-in is finished.

If the new MAN T2 extension is anything to go by, don’t expect any architectural delights, keep your expectations low.

I wouldn’t be surprised if the ‘new terminal’ was to be exclusively Ryanair if the location is to be correct. It is conveniently located next to Sat 3 and the area where Sat 4 would go. I’d therefore guess it’ll have a more low cost feel to it. But you never know.

So could be built to a Ryanair specification of tarmac floors instead of tiles and just openings instead of windows.

Probably a tin shed without windows. Might as well borrow the blueprint from Luton.
